Summary
The ruling depends on the husband's intention when he made the pronouncement. If he truly intended to divorce his wife upon breaching the agreement, she is divorced with one talaq. If he only meant to assure the other party and did not intend to divorce her, the pronouncement does not cause a divorce. If he is unsure of his state at the time, the marriage contract remains valid, and any dispute brought to court is decided by the Syar'ie judge.
Written in our own words from the original fatwa — check the source before acting on it.
Sekiranya ketika dilafazkan taklik tersebut, suami yang melafazkan itu sememangnya bertujuan untuk mentalakkan isterinya jika dia melanggar perjanjian itu, maka isterinya tertalak dengan satu talak.
